Preventing contamination is a crucial element in the design of hygienic processing lines. Yet, manufacturers often face uncertainty when cleaning ducts, tanks, and other confined spaces with hard-to-reach shadow areas. The new Alfa Laval Free Rotating Retractor, a high-efficiency, retractable cleaning device, provides complete cleaning assurance, enhancing product safety while boosting uptime and productivity.
Preparing hygienic vessels quickly and economically, so that all interior surfaces are spotlessly clean and ready for production, is easy with the Free Rotating Retractor. Dynamic and resource-efficient, this retractable cleaning-in-place device remains sealed off from the product area during production, flush with the vessel wall. The spray head slides out, expelling cleaning media in a 310° up-spray pattern across the vessel surface. Upon completion of the cleaning cycle, the spray head retracts and the vessel is production-ready.
